With proper introductions, Gus will also likely get along with kids with an acclimation period. We’re happy to help with tips and tricks! Currently Living at: DC area foster home! Litter: Grub, Garfield, Gus I am Looking For: My loving forever family! Hi! I'm Gus, and I am a cute little kitten! I won’t ask for much- just some love, cuddles and lots of toys so I can run and play and be myself. What My Foster Says About Me: Gus and his siblings are adorable, social, cuddly kittens. They needed zero warm-up time and were eager to explore and play. Once they finally tired out, they're cuddly, easily handled, and are total purr machines. They know no boundaries with humans - they are constantly chasing my feet, wanting to climb up to get attention, and walking all over my keyboard. They're also great with my friendly resident cat and calm 70-pound dog. Gus is play hard, sleep hard. He loves to run, wrestle his siblings, and sleep across my neck. If you're looking for a new heated scarf this winter season, consider adopting Gus!
Kitten Vetting Requirements : Your kitten may not be fully vaccinated upon adoption. You will be responsible for providing whatever remaining vaccines are needed to complete the kitten vaccine series. Due to this kitten’s young age, she/he has not yet been spayed or neutered. As part of the adoption contract, it will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that this is done no later than 1/31/27. There are NO EXCEPTIONS and NO EXTENSIONS to this date . A nonrefundable spay/neuter deposit will be collected if you would like Lucky Dog to pay for this animal to be altered at one of our low-cost partner vets. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this kitten is $220 ($380 for two cats or kittens adopted together), which includes the cost of routine vetting. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckycat Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the cats we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!
